Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-000205

A color model used in printing that describes colors as a combination of four ink pigments: cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black). This subtractive color system works by absorbing certain wavelengths of light and reflecting others, creating the perception of color. The CMYK model is the standard for commercial printing processes.
